Quick question until people start waking up around the house


Are there any distuishing features or marks that identify the Scalextrics motors that are rated at 21.5K?

I got a box full of motors, but can’t tell one apart from the other. I can scope them, but is there another way of identifying them?

Was going to start laying out my second entry, and wanted to power it with the “Scalextrics stock motor” So now I am trying to figure out which can is which.

Thanks

Dan, I think it's only the "new" Scalextric motors that are rated at that level; most of the older Scaley motors have always been considered as "18k rpm" motors.

The Motor I am testing with scoped out at just under 22K @12 volts. It is a metal can with a red stripe across the top. Hopefully this fits the criteria.

Hi David,I see on the pay and ship post you state that the cars are due no later than the 15th February,is this right, I read else where that they are due on the 3rd February.The later the better for me right now :pray:

Hi David, with great regret CARacing have to withdraw from this proxy. Personal issues have caused this and I am truly sad to pull out. I will not make the deadline of 15 Feb, sorry.
Thanx

Does that 1.5mm rule apply to the front spoiler as well? Depending on body float the spoiler on my Camaro may drop into that 1.5mm clearance restriction. I am just wondering if I should remove it.

Hi David

I'm afraid I am going to have to withdraw from this years event as I just haven't had time to to give my SRC Capri the attention it requires to get it running properly. Current lack of home track doesn't help!..
So sorry to let you down and I apologise. Good luck with the event which I will be actively following.

Regards

Alan

Alan, sorry we will miss you this year!

David,
Is it legal to " tape the pod " ?
